AI agents are everywhere now - from coding assistants that can access your entire codebase to customer service bots that can book flights and process refunds. But while we're racing to give LLMs more capabilities, have we stopped to consider the security implications? When your AI can execute code, query databases, and even control your screen, the security concerns become next-level.

In this session, we break down the real security risks of AI-enabled applications, from prompt injection attacks that can hijack your agent's tools to data exfiltration through seemingly innocent queries. We'll explore how attackers exploit LLM vulnerabilities, demonstrate practical defensive strategies, and discuss securing tool calls, implementing proper authorization boundaries for agentic systems, and building robust validation layers between your LLM and your critical systems.

By the end of this talk, you'll understand the unique security challenges of AI-powered applications and walk away with a practical framework for threat modeling and securing your LLM integrations. Whether you're building your first AI agent or already running LLMs in production, you'll gain the knowledge to keep your AI-enabled systems secure without sacrificing their power.
